Man, what an actual throwback. I remember listening to this a bunch back in high school; I was super-into Breaking Benjamin and Three Days Grace and bands of that style. Anyway, you guys did a great job with this!
The first concert i ever went to was Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, Evanescence, and Papa Roach for my 16th birthday. It was super amazing! I still have the concert ticket.
@The Blind Sniper Nice! Sadly, I don't still have the ticket stub for mine (couldn't tell you what happened to it), but my first concert was back at the end of 2011 -- it was Avenged Sevenfold's "Buried Alive" tour with Asking Alexandria, Hollywood Undead, and Black Veil Brides as the opening acts. It was a great show.
@buldren0101 What, really? I knew Adam had left 3DG, but I thought it was 'cause he had to retire due to some longstanding medical issue with his throat?
I really like the way he covered this. Not trying to make himself sound just like the original but doing it in his own style while keeping the same power and emotion as the original.
just listened to Caleb's cover of diary of Jane in sync with this cover and it sounded amazing, I'm actually thinking of doing similar videos and actually gonna upload videos to my channel rather than having it sit dormant, due to Jonathan and Caleb, together they have given me the confidence to do something similar on RUclips, they are great inspiration.
Daphne The Painter hmm. Comatose is without a doubt my favourite Skillet song, along with whispers in the dark, along with most of the unleashed album as well as the comatose album
If I had to I would put myself right beside you So let me ask you, Would ya like that? Would ya like that? And I don't mind If you say This love is the last time So now I'll ask, Do ya like that? Do ya like that? No Something's getting in the way Something's just about to break I will try to find my place In the diary of Jane So, tell me How it should be? Try to find out What makes you tick As I lie down Sore and sick Do ya like that, Do ya like that? There's a fine line Between love and hate And I don't mind Just let me say, That I like that, I like that Something's getting in the way Something's just about to break I will try to find my place In the diary of Jane As I burn another page As I look the other way I still try to find my place In the diary of Jane So tell me How it should be? Desperate I will crawl Waiting for so long No love, there's no love Die for anyone What have I become? Something's getting in the way Something's just about to break I will try to find my place In the diary of Jane As I burn another page As I look the other way I still try to find my place In the diary of Jane
OMG ! I was dreaming about a cover of Breaking Benjamin's song by Jonathan Young. NOW IT'S TRUE !!!!!!! GOD, THANK YOU !!! AND TANK YOU SO MUCH JONATHAN !!!
Amazing cover. I first heard Breaking Benjamin driving around Minneapolis with my friends and I fell in love -- they got me into rock/metal, so they hold a special place in my heart. It's hard to beat the original, but I think I might like the vocals here even more than Ben's. Looking forward to more!
still waiting for you to cover a) Code Lyoko theme and b) a Bon Jovi song And if you ever do another Breaking Benjamin song, allow me to recommend Ashes of Eden
I know this is a year old but I have my personal opinion no hate just constructive criticism! I loved the guitar in the beginning gave me goosebumps in the first few seconds. The vocals seem a little to tune (auto tuned) what have you. & there was no serious voice intensity makes the song seem more monologue. I would’ve loved to hear you do the screams louder and with intensity! Like at 2:32 when it’s “die for anyone *WHAT HAVE I BECOME*!” Saying that though the acoustics of the song were fantastic & you still have a great voice don’t be afraid to project those deep vocals! Great song fellas!
I'm so happy that you made this! Breaking Benjamin has been my favorite band since I was just a little kid, and it was great to hear a cover of them that did their music justice. You have amazing talent, dude! Keep it up!
Not a great producer myself, and I usually think your production sounds great, but here I think the guitars could've done with being a touch louder, then I think this woulda been awesome. Performances sounded killer though, especially those choir-type backing vocals in the last chorus
Typically when I produce covers for John I boost the vocals by 6-8 so louder then the other clients I work for. A VAST majority of Jon's fans want to hear his voice. I personally like guitars/ instrumentals to be about as loud as the vocals so that the song sounds bigger, but the RUclips audience is a lot different then your standard industry metal listener.
This makes sense. I introduce Jon to my friends by showing his songs with most vocal work from him. And they usually like it, due to his voice. I personally would probably prefer louder music, but I do like his stuff for his voice
Boi how do you do this? How do you take songs that are awesome for their style, rhythm, and mood, then completely turn all those on their heads but still make them sound fucking awesome! How?!
I love the way you do covers. You know how to make them without destroying the song, while you remain original. HOW? So awesome. Your voice is the bestest. Keep it up you musical God.
Thank you for doing this song Johnathan. I loved this song growing up (oh man I feel old now) and your rendition is top notch. I absolutely enjoy your music and will be subscribing to your Paetron (i should have already and I’m sorry I haven’t!). I’m hoping someday you’ll do Désir by Garnidelia :). Hope you are doing well! Rock on!
Not a bad cover by any means but there's just sonething about Ben's voice that works more with this song, like this just had the wrong "feel" IMO...still...better than I could probably do so hey
dracotias I'd say it's the fact that there's a range of soft and loud, clean and dirty vocals in the original that really show emotion. This cover is really just a clean, loud, kinda boring and pretty marginal use of Young's voice
You are the perfect example of why baritones deserve more stage time. Lately it's been all about the tenor. Let that buttery voice of yours serve as proof that the proper villain is back in town.
Jonathan Young will not bow, he will not break. He will take our breath away with his amazing covers.
Eckogen nor will he die, nor will he fade
Eckogen Fucking hilarious
I Believe he always makes covers. He is far from Hopeless. It's like an Anthem of the Angels
I believe that the ashes of eden have fallen on him
Even when Angels Fall, no cover of his will be a Failure.
Jonathan Young covering Breaking Benjamin? I must've died and went to heaven ❤
MinusLife I know right? I squeed when I saw the notification.
MinusLife then we already died together and are in heaven 😍
True
+Techno entertain so true!
I'm with you all there...😍
Man, what an actual throwback. I remember listening to this a bunch back in high school; I was super-into Breaking Benjamin and Three Days Grace and bands of that style. Anyway, you guys did a great job with this!
when i think BB its P plates and school because i could finally play my own music in my car.
The first concert i ever went to was Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, Evanescence, and Papa Roach for my 16th birthday. It was super amazing! I still have the concert ticket.
Both of those bands have new albums coming out soon (although 3DG no longer has Adam unfortunately, he joined Saint Asonia)
@The Blind Sniper Nice! Sadly, I don't still have the ticket stub for mine (couldn't tell you what happened to it), but my first concert was back at the end of 2011 -- it was Avenged Sevenfold's "Buried Alive" tour with Asking Alexandria, Hollywood Undead, and Black Veil Brides as the opening acts. It was a great show.
@buldren0101 What, really? I knew Adam had left 3DG, but I thought it was 'cause he had to retire due to some longstanding medical issue with his throat?
Your voice would suit Dance With The Devil sooo well!!!
I completely agree! 😄
OMG YES
Or devil in I by slipknot
Yessss
Yep
Bad ass cover!
MysticUmbreon Ayy it’s Mystic!!
I didn't expect to find a pokemon channel here tbh
didnt expect you here dude
MysticUmbreon HEY MYSTIC
weow a pokemon channel
I really like the way he covered this. Not trying to make himself sound just like the original but doing it in his own style while keeping the same power and emotion as the original.
never have i ever clicked a notification so fast XD
Otaku Dee same 😂
I feel ya, I was in the middle of one of my favorite podcasts and I was like "Fuck this, gimme gimme gimme".
SAME
Straight up, the second i saw it fuck anything else!
Your voice probably compatible with Thousand Foot Krutch, Three Days Grace and Skillet's songs. 🔥
CihatA55 omg i also thought he kinda sounded like skillet and tdg xD
Omg a Skillet cover by Jonathan young?!?! PLEASE LET THIS HAPPEN!!!!
I'd love to hear some TFK
Blue sky I could see him performing Masquerade, or Rawk Fist. I'd love either.
I think Last Words would be great too, honestly anything from Phenomenon
You should do Five Finger Death Punch songs they would fit perfectly with your voice.
Jesus Suazo YESSSSSSSSS
YES, I couldn't agree more
Yesssss
Jesus Suazo YEEEEEEAH! TOTALLY, DUDE!
I'd love to see him cover "Apologize"!
Am I the only one who found this got better the more you listen to it?
Cobra oui
Its that way with most of his songs because of the fact that it is a new style.
No
I still like the original better but JoYo always does a great jov
Nate Kent yea the original is better, one of the few times I like the original more then jons but he still did an amazing job
Yes! Nobody ever escapes the edgy years! They always come creeping back up! ♡
Get Penta-dunked
Also its just great music. So there is that.
Oh my god I just turned into a teenager again help
:O! Larry-Senpai?!
O shit it's larry
Dont worry. I bet ever1 does whos here
You're not the only one, my dude. I haven't clicked on a video so fast in a long time
of course you're here larry
I never knew i needed this until now
just listened to Caleb's cover of diary of Jane in sync with this cover and it sounded amazing, I'm actually thinking of doing similar videos and actually gonna upload videos to my channel rather than having it sit dormant, due to Jonathan and Caleb, together they have given me the confidence to do something similar on RUclips, they are great inspiration.
He makes the song sound so RAW, I love the original but Johnathan singing this SOUNDS SO BEAUTIFUL IM CRYING
I want to hear him sing Whispers in the Dark by Skillet
Daphne The Painter omg YES! Probably my second favourite song from Skillet. And Skillet is just one of if not my top favourite bands of all time!
Mark Guirguis What's your favorite song? (:
Daphne The Painter hmm. Comatose is without a doubt my favourite Skillet song, along with whispers in the dark, along with most of the unleashed album as well as the comatose album
Mark Guirguis Niceeeeeee
Daphne The Painter You freaking genius!! I would pay to hear him sing that song!
And now I will not bow, Ashes of Eden and Angels fall please.
schwubmexx ANGELS FALL *.*
schwubmexx yeah
schwubmexx Do Breath, So Cold, and Blow Me Away please.
Lol the way people reacted he pretty much needs to cover all their albums now
Yourson Isold Your right do all of there songs please, please make a full cover album of Breaking Benjamin
I feel you Jon I feel you
I get it too
If I had to I would put myself right beside you
So let me ask you,
Would ya like that? Would ya like that?
And I don't mind If you say
This love is the last time
So now I'll ask,
Do ya like that? Do ya like that?
No
Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place
In the diary of Jane
So, tell me
How it should be?
Try to find out
What makes you tick As I lie down
Sore and sick
Do ya like that, Do ya like that?
There's a fine line
Between love and hate
And I don't mind
Just let me say,
That I like that, I like that
Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place
In the diary of Jane
As I burn another page
As I look the other way
I still try to find my place
In the diary of Jane
So tell me
How it should be?
Desperate I will crawl
Waiting for so long
No love, there's no love
Die for anyone
What have I become?
Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place
In the diary of Jane
As I burn another page
As I look the other way
I still try to find my place
In the diary of Jane
please do literally any starset song
Alonne Forever I second this. I’d love to hear him sing Halo.
I'd love to hear him sing king for a day
@@Wolfsbaene why can I only give one like to you're comment?
Demons!
Ricochet is hands down the best Starset song ever
ONE OF MY FAVORITE BANDS YESSSS!! *Coughs* I mean great cover
Roderich Edelstein same lmao
Jane’s newest entry in her diary
I HAVE NEVER CLICKED NOTIFACATION SO FAST
Mitchred99 ME TOO!! I got pretty excited lol
Same here dude
This cover is a great example of why a bass is important.
Especially so for Breaking Benjamin, the bass in most of their songs is absolutely amazing.
I want to hear him sing Chop Suey xD
Yyyeeeeesss
@@fundiamond2118 lets do it
It'd be weird to hear it without Serj's accent.
Yes plz
he is practicing it for a long time
Skillet - "Rebirth" (Cover)
Nathan Sharp, Andrew Stein, Johnathan Young & Chase Holfelder feat. Scarlett Pomers
M .W. K FUCK YEAH
M .W. K I can sooooooo see that happening
Jon, MAKE THIS HAPPEN!!
M .W. K Hero and Lucy would be AMAZING as well
THE DREAM TEAM
Crying tears of joy, this song have so many memories
OMG !
I was dreaming about a cover of Breaking Benjamin's song by Jonathan Young.
NOW IT'S TRUE !!!!!!!
GOD, THANK YOU !!!
AND TANK YOU SO MUCH JONATHAN !!!
Amazing cover. I first heard Breaking Benjamin driving around Minneapolis with my friends and I fell in love -- they got me into rock/metal, so they hold a special place in my heart. It's hard to beat the original, but I think I might like the vocals here even more than Ben's. Looking forward to more!
Although an Avenged Sevenfold cover would probably be the best thing ever since they're hands down my favorite band
You should do "My Lullaby" from Lion King 2. If anything needs metalifying, it's that song.
HE LITERALLY JUST DID IT
Jonathan covering BB!! Life is complete now!!
Breaking Benjamin would be proud man! Amazing cover that took me back many years. Well done!
Ahhhh you bloody beauty! I've been hoping for a Breaking Benjamin cover and of course you delivered! Thank you for another phenomenal cover! 💜
Is it bad that I want to hear Jonathan attempt a Korn song, just to see his interpretation of the gibberish?
"Blood For The Blood God"
"Skulls For The Skull Throne"
"Milk For The Khorne Flakes"
Wait, shit wrong Korn, my bad.
That'd be cool. I think songs like "Counting on Me" or any song with a catchy hook would work with Jonathan's style.
I want to see it to
Rotting in Vain would be perfect!
Love and Meth please and thank :3
Incredible! I hope more cover of BB, they are one of my favorite bands
My soul has left my body, this is awesome!!
Imagine that voice with 'so cold'
Ari Irumasu That will be so fvcking epic
OMG I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG
I forgot about this song... Wow, am I glad this is how I rediscovered it. Brilliant.
Oh that texture in your voice. Daaannnnnnng. Absolutely exquisite. Fun, rugged velvet.
3rd, here, saw the notification, BB is one of my FAVORITE bands I knew you guys would do it justice
Oh my god!!!!! Best cover so far!!!!
It’s absolutely amazing but his best work in my opinion is his Unravel, Mob Psycho, Peace sign and his One punch man covers.
still waiting for you to cover a) Code Lyoko theme and b) a Bon Jovi song
And if you ever do another Breaking Benjamin song, allow me to recommend Ashes of Eden
Uncle Bozo Omg, the Code Lyoko theme would be awesome!
Ashes of Eden is my personal favorite song from Breaking Benjamin. His voice is perfect.
Upvote on the code lyoko
Uncle Bozo Code Lyokooooo! 😍
Code lyoko holy fuck I forgot all about that show wonder if he'd do it o.o
Amazing song, covered by an amazing person. Love this so much!
I know this is a year old but I have my personal opinion no hate just constructive criticism! I loved the guitar in the beginning gave me goosebumps in the first few seconds.

Sing dance with the devil too
YASSSSS!!!
Dude, I love that song, even now.
That's my favorite breaking Benjamin song hands down
Ian Hart Same
YES✨✨✨✨
Not a great producer myself, and I usually think your production sounds great, but here I think the guitars could've done with being a touch louder, then I think this woulda been awesome. Performances sounded killer though, especially those choir-type backing vocals in the last chorus
it might be a youtube quality as well. Some songs sound a bit louder after purchasing them
Typically when I produce covers for John I boost the vocals by 6-8 so louder then the other clients I work for. A VAST majority of Jon's fans want to hear his voice. I personally like guitars/ instrumentals to be about as loud as the vocals so that the song sounds bigger, but the RUclips audience is a lot different then your standard industry metal listener.

JummySea Do you still play counterstrike?
So I wasn’t the only one thinking that
One of my favorite youtubers covered one of my favorite bands.. my life is complete.
Best cover yet!!!! Love Breaking Benjamin!!!!
OH. MY. GOD. This is one of my favorite breaking Benjamin songs. This is a wonderful cover, Jonathan. Well done! 👏 And I love the AT-AT on your shirt.
You should cover a song by Red...you pick lol I just wanna hear it.
oof Red gets no love!
Omg yes
Oh God, that's something I didn't know I needed till I read it, Pieces, Alredy over, pls xD
Pieces and Hymn for the Missing
Already over would be sick
Awesome cover
i could almost feel the blood dripping in this song! wonderful!!!!!
OMFG! I got to see Breaking Benjamin live a couple of months ago and they were awesome! They played this song and I wanted to cry it was so awesome
Covering my favorite band! Amazing rendition!
Thank you so much Jonathan Young for remaking my favorite song 😄🎉
False. I meant doing a cover lol
I absolutely LOVE your voice 😍 Great cover!
I love the halo chants in the background towards the end
Just listened to both versions of the song, yours and the original. The timing was spot on point and sounded awesome!
Maybe I'm slow on this but I couldn't help but notice the Thieve's Guild shadowmark on Jonathan's wrist.
Neko Boo you're more observant than I am 😅
lmao I probably wouldn't have noticed were it not for playing Skyrim again recently xD
I like this! And your Three Days Grace covers too! Please cover more BB please
Ahhhhhh im huge fan of breaking Benjamin's
Bloody hell does this take me back.
Thank you for making me feel young, and then really old afterwards.
I used to be obsessed with this song. Love this cover!!
Why is this not on iTunes?! 😭
Awesome cover lads! 🤟🏻😎
🏴
OMG!!!!! This is amazing! If you're doing Breaking Benjamin songs could you do Ashes of Eden by any chance?
Boi how do you do this? How do you take songs that are awesome for their style, rhythm, and mood, then completely turn all those on their heads but still make them sound fucking awesome! How?!
I am in love.... I love Breaking Benjamin and I love Jonathan young but don't get me started Lee was awesome best cover ever 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I love the way you do covers. You know how to make them without destroying the song, while you remain original. HOW? So awesome. Your voice is the bestest. Keep it up you musical God.
I remember using limewire to Bluetooth this song on my qwerty board phone. Dam nostalgia.
Jon:"feel my song"
Me:"😈😈😈😈😈😈lets do it man"
I searched for my own channel, but then i found heaven.
You never know with jonathans
I could not click on this video fast enough. I just had to listen to this. I love Breaking Benjamin.
I have this song on Loop for a week now. So good.
I love the way T.J Miller sing here
You have such a fantastic voice but I love the original so much that it overshadows how much I could potentially love this.
I've never closed my girlfriend's legs so fast.
loooool
🤣🤣🤣
Hahahaha, that's good shit man
Hahahahahahahahaha😂😂😂😂😂
You win RUclips for the day....
more. more of this. more PLEASE. your amazing music combined with the classic songs of my teenage angst
now i put this on a loop for 20 hours thank you My Savior
Yes.
Just...
Yes.
For fun i played this and Caleb Hyles version at the same time and it sound so demonic xD
Wow, just wow. Dude, you should totally try to cover BBs I Will Not Bow.
The art of cover songs at its best!!!
Awesome cover Diary Of Jane is one of my favourite song's by Breaking Benjamin thank you for doing this cover.
Gotta love that metal growl!
„I would put myself right beside you. Would you like that?“
*Blushes* well who wouldn’t!?
AMAZING!!! Please make more Breaking Benjamin covers. Please. Please. Please. This is my favorite!
This cover has grown on me one of the best I have seen for this song. Well done again Jonathan :)
Do Dance with the Devil or I Will Not Bow plzzzzz!
TheCerealKiller I will not bow would be awesome
TheCerealKiller GOD YES
This is so cool, the 2 versions are very great, "IN THE DIARY OF JANE !!!" :-)
Any chance you can do a cover of Uragiri no Yuuyake? (the opening for Durarara) love ya dude
BronzeGamer GJ__MAN omg I love that one, I second this^^^^^
Yesss
I just fell back in time to 2009 and I couldn't be happier. I clicked this SO DAMN FAST.
Since I heard the original version I knew how great you would do this one! These are the songs for you!
Do some more Breaking Benjamin covers please!
Thank you for doing this song Johnathan. I loved this song growing up (oh man I feel old now) and your rendition is top notch. I absolutely enjoy your music and will be subscribing to your Paetron (i should have already and I’m sorry I haven’t!). I’m hoping someday you’ll do Désir by Garnidelia :).
Hope you are doing well! Rock on!
Not a bad cover by any means but there's just sonething about Ben's voice that works more with this song, like this just had the wrong "feel" IMO...still...better than I could probably do so hey

I can sing like ben
Ben's vocals are legendary but this is still pretty great.
@@Deadspace_YT same besides the brutals which i havent worked on in years so meh lol
Ben's voice is just so damn good!
You are the perfect example of why baritones deserve more stage time. Lately it's been all about the tenor. Let that buttery voice of yours serve as proof that the proper villain is back in town.
this is one of those things of which I didn't know that I needed them until I had them.
My emo heart is screaming
